I just decided to start using VIM, and i love it. It is very efficient, and does what i need for now. I realize i should probably use Emacs eventually but it seems too much trouble than it is worth for right now. VIM seems so efficient for deletes, copying, search-and-replace, and the like. And VIM has nice syntax highlighting. Plus it loads quickly. The thing that bugs me about emacs is remembering the extra keys- control, alt, meta, escape, etc. It seems easy to mix up C-c and M-c and Alt-c. -=> jm <=- "I've done questionable things, also extraordinary things....
